Holy of Holies!There’s a new Wiggles car at the Great World City! Liam spotted this from 100 yards (that’s 91.44 meters) across the mall. He didn’t care whether I plugged money into it, he just wanted to sit there.Also, it should be noted that he is a big hit with the little girls here. His [...]

Swimming. Get used to it.
Posted on 13. Oct, 2005 by Rob.
We picked up a fancy-schmancy swim suit for Liam the other day. Figured we’re going to be doing a lot of swimming so we may as well get one that:a.) helps him floatb.) keeps the sun off 75% of his body, andc.) doubles as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Halloween costume For more poolside shots, [...]

Maybe we should change the name of our website for another week or so – until we make the full transition from St. Paul time to Singapore time.

Hello Singapore!
Posted on 05. Oct, 2005 by Rob.
Well we made it. The trip was pleasantly uneventful and we are getting settled into our temporary apartment. We’ll be here for about a month or so, until the shipping container arrives carrying our furniture and other goods. The temporary apartment isn’t so bad… better at least than the tiny hotel room we had for [...]
